This is, of course, only the beginning. The folks who prevailed in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit get to file a brief of their own, and the District then gets to file a reply brief.

Update:

BLT reports that Walter Dellinger, an acting U.S. Solicitor General during the Clinton administration and currently the top dog in the appellate practice department of a hoity toity D.C. law firm, will argue the District’s case on a pro bono basis.
